What do you take for granted? (Or what did you take for granted that you don’t anymore?)

Here are some expressions you can use:
|
Giving your opinion |
So I think… It seems to me… When I was young, |
|
Checking |
Do you mean….? Are you asking…? Are you talking about…? |
|
Thinking time |
Hmmmmm… Let me think (about that). I’m not really sure… I haven’t really thought about that before. |
|
Complimenting |
That’s a good question. Good point. |
|
Choosing not to answer |
I prefer to discuss the future and not the past. I’d rather not talk about that. |
|
Involving other people |
What do you think? How about you? |
